2026 Leavers trip - Boomers & Swingers

Last week we took our leavers to play some golf down at boomers and swingers 🏌️⛳️

We had a brilliant day with fun had by all. Even our staff got involved ( although we weren’t very good)

Pizza for lunch always goes down a treat 🍕

We will miss you all at FIX IT! Good lucky future endeavours 🍀

Summer term rewards presentation 🏆

Yesterday we celebrated our learners hard work and efforts from this summer term.

It’s lovely to see so many proud faces celebrating their successes.

We have had some fantastic achievements this term and would like to thank you all individually for your hard work and determination.

We look forward to our rewards trip on Monday to celebrate further.

Well done to all 😁☀️🏆

Fix It is a proud sponsor of Orrell St James ARLFC Under 14's Blues🏉

We also sponsor team player, Brian Murphy, who received 'Top Defender' in the last match.

This award shows outstanding determination, resilience and teamwork on the pitch. This accomplishment reflects the values we promote at our college and we are delighted to be part of their journey and success.

Well done, Brian!🙂

SEN Local Offer Event🙂

This week, staff attended a SEN event, which provided a valuable opportunity for young people to explore the support and services available to them.

The event brought together a wide range of organisations to help young people and vulnerable adults in their future planning.

Our Motor Vehicle Lead Tutor took some resources/tools in order for people attending to take a wheel off and then put it back on themselves (the adults loved this one too!)😃

Our Functional Skills Lead took some ingredients to make mocktails😋. This was used to demonstrate how we use maths in real time, using a measuring jug and scales in order to get the perfect drink!

Overall, the event was informative and empowering. Thank you for having us!

This term, the Post 16 Level 1 learners have been working through the 'Battery and Lighting systems' module of their Motor Vehicle Studies Qualification.

This week, learners learned about 'Potato Power!' where they learned that a regular potato can produce almost 1 Volt of Electricity. They wired multiple potatoes (and a banana!) in a series circuit to make nearly 10 Volts, enough to illuminate a LED light!😮

Learners also learned about how generators work and how to change a light bulb correctly.

The Level 2 learners continued their professional journey to employment and carried out a Four Wheel Alignment check on a Range Rover, then made adjustments.🔧

Last week we had a guest speaker in from 'Unbottled'.

Loti, who is a diversity and inclusion ambassador, came into our centre and delivered a workshop, encouraging conversations about belonging, identity and diversity.

Our learners were really engaged and loved having Loti in🙂

Wishing all of our learners and staff a very happy Easter break.

Fantastic work this term, looking forward to all of our activities and achievements next term.

We’ve had a cracking time this week with all of our Easter activities. As part of functional skills sessions this week, learners have been learning to follow a set of written instructions. We thought it would be fun to follow the instructions and make cheesecake filled Easter eggs.
Brilliant work and absolutely delicious treats.

Happy Easter
🐣 💛🌻
